Prevention of Water Overflows and Leakages at MPCOE Campus
Abstract: Water is one of the fundamental necessities of human life, essential for a wide range of daily activities. People rely on water for drinking, cleaning, cooking, irrigation, and industrial processes. To meet these needs, water is often pumped from ground storage to overhead tanks. However, the use of non-automated switches to operate pumping machines can lead to significant issues, such as water overflow and unnecessary electricity consumption. The proposed system …

A Survey on Hydrogen Storage System using Composite Material and its Alloys
Abstract: The transition to a carbon-neutral energy landscape hinges on the ability to store hydrogen safely, densely, and reversibly. While high-pressure tanks and cryogenic vessels dominate today’s infrastructure, solid-state storage in metallic alloys offers a compelling alternative by combining high gravimetric capacity with intrinsic safety to form a composite material. This work presents a systematic investigation of a family of reversible hydrogen-absorbing composite material alloys—principally Mg-based intermetallics (Mg₂Ni, MgFeMn) and TiV-based …
